Djokovic capped off a dominant performance for Serbia in their Davis Cup quarter-final against Britain. After Miomir Kecmanovic downed Jack Draper 7-6(2) 7-6(8), the 24-time Major winner came out and beat Norrie to clinch the tie for his nation 2-0, with neither man even facing a break point.
While it was another sublime performance for the world No 1, he still ran into some difficulty in the form of the British fans. Despite playing in Malaga, team GB had plenty of home support in the arena. But Djokovic wasn’t happy when some of the fans interrupted him, with one shouting between his first and second serves.
When the tie was over, some spectators played their drums to drown out Djokovic’s on-court interview and he lashed out. “Learn how to respect players, learn how to respect people, you shut up, you be quiet,” he fumed. The 36-year-old has since explained why he hit out, admitting that the “disrespect” continued throughout the evening.
